Prepared er to be amazed!!!!

Public Auction Sale: FABULOUS GUN & AMMO AUCTION - Indianapolis, IN

 

[Goodcat]

He had 17 1941 Johnson 30-06 rifles? Guess what his favorite was?

 

[338sniper]

This is only the first batch, there are nearly 2000 firearms in his collection

 

[MCgrease08]

That's a lot of guns, at 37 pages of listings. Anybody know what this guy did for a living that he could afford to build a collection that large.

 

[Frank_N_Stein]

Where does the money go?

 

[338sniper]

The auction was released before Elizabeth killed herself. There are still SEVERAL class 3 items

 

[Magneto]

I can dream can't I?

 

[338sniper]

Horrible timing, during the holidays.

 

[SkullDaddy.45]

What did this guy do for a living? He spent some serious cash on these weapons!

 

[indykid]

Looking at the list of firearms, I am going to have to sell a few body parts and remortgage the house. The guy had some really nice firearms!!!

 

[338sniper]

I think the $20 transfer per gun is bull though

 

[KellyinAvon]

HOLY *****, BATMAN!!! Want a Garand? A Luger? A Ruger? An AR? An AK? A revolver? An 870? A Sig? A Glock? A 1911? A 1911 A1? An Enfield? WOW!!

It sucks to be held in a bad part of Indy, at least enough to keep me away.

Very bad part of Indy. The transfer fee is way out of line. I suggest everyone stay away...

No need to go ill file a complete report on here for you.

We are talking nearly a quarter million dollars in this auction alone. The amount of ammo alone is mind blowing. Several calibers we haven't seen available in years. I've been talking with someone pretty important during this process and the information I have been given has been pretty accurate so far. If the rest of the info I have gotten is as accurate be prepared to go BROKE!

some people may of found it rude that I was "unconvinced" by Elizabeth passing away. However, that was not where I was going with it. I was merely concerned what would happen to this AMAZING collection. Could you imagine this all being destroyed? She didn't want nothing to do with these guns after the incident. That's why the auction has happened so quickly. She had been persuaded into the auction as that was not her original plan. (A 100k-200k cash offer would have originally bought this collection I believe from the conversations I've had).

While I may appear to be a heartless, uncaring, and self centered person, I assure you this was the best solution to all parties (ms. Roberts and the gun community) think about that. I'm not sure what's in store for the remainder of the guns, ammo, parts, ect...with the recent passing of Ms. Roberts, But I am hoping to know more this week.

I'll be there, with my pops. Surprised though they haven't advertised it anymore then they have. No online bidding and it is not showing up on auctionzip.com. I heard he had some class 3 weapons but do not see any in the auction. If they were not legal Does that mean they will be destroyed??

 

[Racechase1]

Nice collection up for grabs. I need to win the lottery this week. Also with him getting killed in Greentucky, I knew she'd never go to trial. That is one funny little town out there to say the least. There are a lot of skeletons in a lot of closets.

 

[gunsisgood]

I will not attend, to many unanswered questions.

Bad part of Indy? I would disagree. I-65 is a very good divider of good/bad parts of Lafayette Rd.

id love to go, but unable to sell my soul again. I'd love to have a collection like that one day. Prepare for crazy prices?
